Yes, I would think they are. These fish are INCREDIBLY variable (at least, if I'm right in thinking they are ).

Indeed, L134 is extremely variable. I'm curious whether or not these different patterns come from the same locality or not.

They are different locations, the same with several other L-numbers for Peckoltia origin Rio Tapajos... if Rio Xingu has the complex of Hypancistrus Rio Tapajos have the same for Peckoltia.
